Guest Designer for Paper Girls--Yellowstone Road Trip

I was asked to do a Guest Designer Gig for Paper Girls, and I had a blast creating this two page layout with the recipe for the challenge!

What a fun challenge to use 4 patterned papers, 3 wooden
elements, 2 inks and 1 stamp!I started
by looking at the wooden elements I had in my stash and came up with these fun Little
Yellow Bicycle Travel wood shapes.I
recently acquired Die Cuts With a View Adventurer paper collection, so with those
choices in mind I decided to create a two page layout of our quick trip through
Yellowstone National Park.We made a last minute side trip into
Yellowstone and hit the major sites in just 6 or 7 hours!The papers picked up the reds and oranges
nicely and complemented the other colors of nature nicely.I had a great amount to say in my journaling,
so the computer was the best way to accomplish that task.The edges of the papers are inked with
Memento Luxe Morocco ink.The “1-stamp”
is the title, and is actually Junkitz Sketchy alphabet along with Fiskars When
In Roam set.These images are also
stamped with Memento Luxe Morocco ink.The internal parts of the letters were colored in with a second ink in
Peanut Brittle from a Memento Dual Tip Marker.It was difficult to narrow down just a few photos, but I think I
captured that quick Road Trip through Yellowstone nicely!

About Me

Hectic as my life is . . . I have a desire to decompress by creating in my craft cave! Currently we have 34 residents on our mini-farm, which includes four humans. Our two active athletic boys keep us running to their various activities. I work for our business doing accounting and HR paperwork, as a substitute teacher in local High Schools, and now as a Community College Chemistry Instructor. Despite the busyness of life, my scrapping, altered art, and card making all provide a respite of creative energy and renewal.
